The pie chart illustrates the percentage of the immigrant workforce from six different regions in Australia in 1991.
Overall, it is clear from the chart the majority of immigrant workers are from Europe. Asians and New Zealanders also made up a significant percentage, while only a relatively small proportion of workers were from other regions
The majority of foreign workers came from Europe. In fact, nearly 62% were of European origin. The second largest group of foreign workers in the labour force were Asians, which accounted for 17%. New Zealanders accounted for 9% number of workers who were immigrants in Australia. Which made up the third largest group of foreigners.
Furthermore, the proportion of staff from other countries was much smaller, which is 5%. North Africa, and the Middle East, for example, were just 4% of the whole foreign labour market. The smallest nationality, however, was the Americans. Which represented just only 3% of all the foreign workers in Australia in 1991.
